Boy oh boy do those rear pillars and quarters simply ooooze "sexiness".

VERY nice lines.

Boxter handling and Carrera(almost) speed?

Commencing to drool now.....

Hi YeOldeStonecat

As you state Brian, they got it right

Looks very good and will bolster sales i'm sure. The 911 has been tailing off in sales and this should perk things up considerably i would think.

Have a good one & Thanks

Hi brembo

Yes indeed. It is something to lust after. Damn Lotto still hasn't come through for me yet though.

Enjoy your day and Thanks for your reply

Hi YARDofSTUF

Do you really think so YARDofSTUF? The Audi TT only has 250hp tops. The 911S 355 hp and the Boxster weighs in at around 235 or so.

The Cayman S will be powered by a 295-bhp 3.4-liter flat-6. i thought it slotted in rather well and with less weight should scoot right along.

They can't cut it too close to the 911 or they cannot justify the price and performance difference imho.

Just my opinion

Thanks and do enjoy your day

Reminds me a little too much of those old Opel sports cars.

After some searching I found out it is the "Buick Opel GT" I was thinking of

I will need to see it around a little bit more before I get used to it.

Thank You De Plano

Man i'd been busting my brain box all day trying to recall the Car it reminded me of. You just nailed it.

As soon as i saw Opel it came rushing back to me. Many similarities for sure.

Still nice enough lines though and its performance will draw a lot of buyers i think. It is priced within the realm of possibility for a lot more people now.

Thanks again and have a wonderful night

Now that's a nice looking ride.

I didn't think too much of the boxter but i really like the look it gives the back end of this one. Good find minir.

Yeah those sure were cool little cars. One of my uncles had one when I was growing up.
